Just a few hours after Bai Chen left the palace with Zhu Ge to scatter Bai Renshu’s ash into the river, the Black Werewolf Clan that had been wanting to wreak havoc in Dong Lang to usurp the throne from the Emperor finally launched an attack on the Emperor at the Rongyao Imperial Palace.

The Black Werewolf Clan had over three hundred soldiers, and those soldiers were secretly targeting the commoners living in Dong Lang first. The Rongyao Imperial Palace noticed the movement, and Emperor Bai Guowei ordered five hundred soldiers to protect the common people from the enemy’s sneaky attacks.

Bai Guowei looked like an arrogant Emperor who just wanted to sit quietly on his throne doing nothing, but he truly cared about his people, and that was why he didn’t hesitate to order half of the soldiers he had in the palace to rescue the common people from enemy attacks.

He thought it wouldn’t be a big deal for him in the palace even if he was only guarded by five hundred soldiers at the moment. After all, all of the warriors from the Black Werewolf Clan were now fighting the warriors he sent from the Rongyao Imperial Palace to protect his people outside the palace, and he assumed that he would not have to worry about his safety in the palace.

Who would have thought that attacking the weak was just Shao Yaoting’s scheming? It turned out he didn’t really send all of his soldiers to attack the weaklings in the empire. He surely had three hundred soldiers, but only fifty people were real soldiers going to attack the commoners, while the rest two hundred and fifty were fake soldiers deliberately used to fool the Emperor.

Those two hundred and fifty people who deliberately dressed up as soldiers of the Black Werewolf Clan weren’t actually combat-type werewolves and were indeed just a trap set by Shao Yaoting to lure soldiers from the Rongyao Imperial Palace out.

The warriors of the Rongyao Imperial Palace couldn’t even kill people who didn’t have combat skills because such an act was against the rules in Dong Lang. They could attack those who were as strong as them, but they couldn’t bully the weak, and that was why they could only arrest the people from the Black Werewolf Clan before sending a report to the Emperor that they had been tricked by the enemy.

Unfortunately, the report had come to the Emperor too late, and now the Rongyao Imperial Palace was under the control of the Black Werewolf Clan. Sure enough, there were still five hundred soldiers protecting the Emperor in the palace, but who would have thought that the Black Werewolf Clan had a secret weapon under their sleeves?

.....

In the end, Bai Guowei’s position was squeezed, and he could only sit helplessly on his throne while being surrounded by the rebels from the Black Werewolf Clan.

The Zuigao Hall was full of people wearing black, and only the Emperor sitting on the throne was wearing white. Inside the hall, more than a dozen corpses were visible from the fighting between the government and the rebels, and Bai Guowei was sure that there must be many more victims outside the hall.

The Emperor clenched his grip on the throne’s armrest as he glared at Shao Yaoting who was calmly standing in the center of the vast hall.

“What do you want from me, Shao Yaoting?”

There was no need to pretend to be polite to one another, and that was why Emperor Bai Guowei immediately questioned his enemy while showing his hostility.

Shao Yaoting looked like he was already a winner even if Bai Guowei was still sitting on the throne, and he smirked at the man in white before replying, “You don’t want to admit that you are the one who killed my daughter, and now I want you to pay for my daughter’s life with your throne, Your Majesty.”

Unlike Bai Guowei who no longer wanted to pretend in front of his enemies, Shao Yaoting still addressed him by his formal title, but Bai Guowei only laughed after hearing that.

“I feel sorry for your daughter now,” said the Emperor. “She was killed by the beast, and you kept using her as an excuse to wrest the throne from me. Perhaps it would be a bold guess from me, but I don’t think you’re doing all this because of your daughter, Shao Yaoting. I’m pretty sure you don’t even care about your daughter, and I believe you only care about the throne.”

Bai Guowei was indeed surrounded by more than twenty people clad in black, but it didn’t seem like he was afraid of them, and that was why he was still able to attack Shao Yaoting with his mouth in this situation.

Right. Shao Yaoting knelt in front of the Zuigao Hall to ask the Emperor to confess his sin of causing his daughter to meet a tragic end in the Forbidden Forest before the man finally led his army to an open rebellion in Dong Lang. At first glance, Shao Yaoting was doing all of this to seek justice for his daughter, but Bai Guowei somehow didn’t want to believe that.

On the contrary, Bai Guowei believed that Shao Yaoting was only using his daughter as an excuse to start his rebellion in Dong Lang.

The white-haired Emperor blatantly attacked him with harsh words, but Shao Yaoting didn’t seem bothered by it. A small smirk remained on his face even after he received the verbal attack from Bai Guowei, and he once again replied calmly, “You are right, Your Majesty. My goal has always been the throne, and that’s why you better abdicate voluntarily because you can’t escape my claws now. Your eldest son is dead, and your youngest son is out there without protection. If you don’t wish to abdicate of your own accord, then I will not hesitate to kill your youngest son before I will finish you off as well, Your Majesty. I need to make sure no one from the White Werewolf Clan gets in my way.”
